I agree. My 2009 Ram is on its fourth set of tires, 3 of those sets being Michelin. (Twice generous on warranty replacement. Not quite as generous the third time.) About 40K is the max. Truck perfectly aligned and tires rotated. The current set is Saliums and they appear to be wearing about the same. According to my tire guy some trucks just eat tires. He thinks Rams are the worst but says he has customers with the same problem from the other 2 of the big 3 manufacturers.
